I've gotten quite a lot of interest in the part out of my FC, I've made nearly $2K in less than a week. If I can get a little more sold and sell the Ranger, I should have a considerable down payment on a new car. I'm having second thoughts about spending so much money on a car though. It might not be a lot of money for some people but you have to remember that I'm used to buying $2 or $3000 cars I keep telling myself it's worth it, though...

Here's my old love as she sits today.

On another note, the wife and took the FB out today- it seems like everyone wants to race us! I played with a late 90's Mustang GT the other day and I'm pretty sure the old first gen pulled on him. This motor is definitely ported, it's zippy as hell.

And on yet another note, I'm going out of town tomorrow through Thursday, so I can't make it to the meet. I've been pushing Tara to just bring the FB and herself out but I think Ray has scared her away

Who's coming out tonight? I'll be there.

Brett, tell Tara to bring the 7 out. I won't let Ray bother her. Besides, Ray never comes to these meets anymore.

There are some outstanding benefits from buying a car that has been part of the OGTA family. Nice pics Crit.

Tara is safe.

I need to stay home and work on an $0.5M federal grant on what a sperm needs to do when it fertilizes an egg.

Sure would like to see that new FB of Aaron's though, you guys be sure to take lots of pics.

Especially the FBs and pick up trucks, and don't forget to post them up!

Ray, you missed another great OGTA meet. We actually discussed the topic of your research grant. With any luck we should have a new rotorhead to add to OGTA in about 9 months.

BTW, I think we already know what a sperm does when it fertilizes and egg. What agency is sponsoring this kind of research. I think I need to give them a call.

That would be the NIH College of Hard Knocks Mike, give them a call a put in a good word, would you?

So OK, any of you dudes got some pics of the Feb '14 OGTA Meeting?

Or y'all getting Too Old to figure out the photo thing on the Smart Phone and learn how to post the pics?

Man, maybe I do need to show up for the March meeting. At least there'll be some daylight.

And while we're on the subject, could somebody call up one of those Idiot Mods and get Crit's Rotors fixed???

Now, this is topic worthy of research, finding out why Crits rotors are not showing up right. Ray, do you think NIH will fund a grant for this research?

Rather than staying inside, I decided to bring my inner kid out and play in the snow today. Problem was, I didn't have a sled. So I did what any reasonable parts hoarder would do. It worked pretty dang well, too.

Excellent use of an FC hood Brett, nice work. And the beard is looking pretty good too, just like a Mountain Man!

We just had an earthquake here in Jefferson.

I hope Brett didn't buy that Suby.

I didn't but that Sudy, I came to my senses and decided to get something that I could buy outright with no car payment... So as of Saturday evening, I'm one of these guys...



The neglected FC in the background...



It's getting down to the bare bones!

Brett, nice looking Bimmer. So when are we swapping a rotary into that bad boy? We'll probably have to drop a ton of weight too. But it will be sweat ride with a rotary an no interior.
